    Sex work is not exclusive to women. The dependency you speak of is like one step removed from health insurance provided by an employer imo.

    how can one truly be sure that what the woman does is out of her own will and would have done it regardless if concept of money didn’t exist?

    You can ask them.

      The problem isn’t individual preference or whatever - there are definitely people who’d love to bang around, money or not. The problem is the structural coercion, the fact that you’re doing it for an essential resource required to survive in today’s society, so there’s absolutely no way. It isn’t done purely out of free will or for fun as some people would suggest.

          The post is ambiguous enough where it could very well be pro sex work, and there’s a surprising amount of comments here having this reading too like sex work being some liberatory, empowering thing as opposed to a form of commodifying yourself
